I remember vividly when I enrolled at ZEBS back in 2013. I went there to be with other students and while away my time.

Little did I know that Jesus Christ was about to enter into my life.

Our teachers told us the ZEBS theme was simply, “What does the Bible say?” I started to ask myself is there anything important about reading the Bible? And I started to read my Bible with one aim in mind: to know God.

The more I read and listened, the more I realized that, as Proverbs 14:27 says, “the fear of the Lord is the foundation of life, it turns away man from the snares of death.” For me to run away from spiritual death, I needed to receive Jesus Christ. It is He alone who can provide us with spiritual survival long after our bodies are in the ground.

You know, you can use corruption, bribery, or money to get anything you want in this world, but you can’t use any of that to receive salvation. Only Jesus can provide this. I’m so thankful for my teachers at ZEBS for showing me this.
